I needed a break.

After going nonstop for two years making (and now having to distribute) the movie, I took some time off to focus on family while I waited for news.

I’m back online now. Here’s an update.

 

International Broadcast Distribution

Great news! Even though we had a hard time at first getting the attention of Hollywood, your vocal support has made an impact.

We just signed a deal with Principal Media for international broadcast distribution. They work with the BBC, Discovery Channel, Fox, and many others!

We’re currently waiting to see if any of the networks are interested (that is not guaranteed), but we’re happy to finally have greater support in Hollywood.

If you can, please leave a review of the movie here on IMDB. Netflix and the other guys are watching.

In the meantime, there are a ton of events scheduled in the new year for those who haven’t seen the movie yet.

 
 
Upcoming Events

30+ events in the US – Dates in January


Liverpool – January 16


Vancouver – January 31
Toronto – January 31
Ottawa – January 31
Calgary – January 31
Halifax – January 31
 

Copenhagen – February 3 (Danish Premiere)

 
Stockholm – February 7 (Swedish Premiere)
 
If you’d like to host a new year’s resolution #ABillionLives event for smokers in the new year,click here.
 
We also have word that things are looking good to bring the movie to continental Europe finally. More word on that soon.
 
 
Global Tour Recap
 

November was a busy month of traveling around the world to protest against what the WHO was doing in India and support the movement in Europe.

It was overwhelming.

We are still going through all the pictures and editing video footage, but here’s “The Movement” video from our global launch events in Toronto, NYC, and Hollywood.

Thanks for being a part of the movement. Because of you we’ve reached politicians, rock stars, movie stars, and hundreds of thousands of people.

We’re working hard this past month on getting the movie ready for home video and streaming.

Stay tuned.

Vapor News: Fire the U.S. Surgeon General

Vapor News: Fire the U.S. Surgeon General 
Vapor News and Views

News and views on vapor tax and regulatory issues from across the United States. The best way to stay up to date with what’s happening in Washington and in your state capitol.
Friends,
You’d think as we approached the Holidays, things would slow down a bit… Wrong. The U.S. Surgeon General recently released a 251-page report outlining the hazards of vapor products (see: nicotine) to America’s youth. Funny thing… the report neglected this year’s data which showed something quite interesting. Read below!
Senator Ron Johnson keeps on keepin’ on. He’s moving his attention beyond the FDA and towards the incoming administration. The reality is that the solutions approach over the next two years is two pronged – legislative and regulatory. The administration and the FDA can provide some relief through selective enforcement and Congress can change the predicate date, among other things.
And finally, a U.S. Senator who has never held a real job has called for recalls of vapor products.
In the next News and Views, I’ll preview 2017 state and local legislative threats to keep you occupied over the Holidays.

U.S. Surgeon General Derelict in Duty to Promote Public Health
The nation’s top public health official just “sounded the alarm” on e-cigarettes with a report outlining the dangers of the products, with a specific focus on teens and young adults.
If you’re interested in reading the Surgeon General’s report, “E-Cigarette Use Among Youth and Young Adults,” it can be found here.
“These products are now the most commonly used form of tobacco among youth in the United States, surpassing conventional tobacco products, including cigarettes, cigars, chewing tobacco and hookahs,” wrote Dr. Vivek H. Murthy. “In fact, use of e-cigarettes among high school students increased by 900% from 2011 to 2015.”
From the Washington Post to the New York Times, CNN, the L.A. Times, and countless more, the press ran with a fear-mongering story that presented no new information and ignored plenty of evidence about the reduced risk the products pose to the millions of who have made the switch from cigarettes.
In the context of all-time lows for smoking rates among America’s youth and in light of the fact that vapor products are at least 95% less harmful than combustible cigarettes, the report is beyond reprehensible.As Reason’s Guy Bentley pointed out, “The Surgeon General’s report and the media’s deferential reaction to it are part of a larger narrative that is hostile to e-cigarettes, prizing nicotine abstinence above all else.”
And even worse…
Monitoring the Future Study Shows Vaping Decline Among Youth

One week after the Surgeon General released the report, the University of Michigan’s Monitoring the Future Study showed that the percentage of teens who vaped declined in 2016. You read that right.

“From 2015 to 2016, the percentage of adolescents who vaped in the last 30 days declined from 16 percent to 13 percent among 12th-grade students, from 14 percent to 11 percent among 10th-grade students, and from 8 percent to 6 percent among 8th-grade students. Each of these declines was statistically significant.”

So one week after every major press outlet runs with the Surgeon General’s report on teen vaping, data shows that teen use of the products declined this year. And cigarette use? Also at a 42-year low. So much for that gateway effect.

From Dr. Siegel, “It is interesting that the Surgeon General released his report just prior to the release of these new data. Perhaps he realized that once these data came out, his ‘story’ about the scourge of e-cigarettes would be destroyed, so he wanted to get it in so it could have the maximum media impact. Even if it is purely a coincidence, it is going to be difficult to undo the damage caused by the Surgeon General’s report.”

From Sally Satel and David Sweanor, “What’s going on? Incredibly, the agencies’ leaders appear to see any nicotine use as a moral failure rather than a public health issue. To them, all nicotine and tobacco products are equally evil, echoing earlier approaches to alcohol. They think they are battling the hated Big Tobacco, when in fact they are protecting its deadliest product — cigarettes — while misinforming the public.”
Senator Ron Johnson Won’t Stop Until We Win
In each of the last two News and Views emails, I’ve highlighted Senator Ron Johnson’s (R-Wis.) leadership and commitment to regulatory relief for the vapor industry. This email will be no different.
In a letter jointly authored by Sen. Johnson and Congressman Duncan Hunter (R-Calif.), the two ask Vice President-elect Mike Pence (who is chairing the transition effort and by most accounts leading many of the domestic policy discussions) for assistance in the fight to rein in the Obama administration’s overreach with the FDA deeming rule.
Excerpt: “As we continue to pursue legislative options that will protect the thousands of small businesses that rely on producing and selling e-cigarettes, we respectfully urge the new Administration to consider repealing or suspending the FDA’s burdensome deeming regulation over e-cigarettes.  With the President-Elect’s leadership, we are hopeful that we can protect thousands of small-business owners, employees, and consumers from the FDA’s overreach.”
Many of you have asked me in recent weeks what can be done to ensure that our fight and this issue is on the radar of the President-elect. This is a good step in that direction with much more in the pipeline. Stay tuned!
Incoming Senate Minority Leader Declares War on Vapor Products
Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) urged the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission to work with the FDA to use data it has collected on the vapor industry to consider recalls of exploding vapor products nationwide. Calling e-cigarettes “ticking time bombs,” Schumer cited the 92 explosions the FDA identified from 2009 to September 2015 and 66 from 2015 and early 2016.
This out-of-touch Senator likes to bloviate and is no new foe to the industry, having called for limits on flavors in the past. What’s somewhat concerning is his position as incoming leader of the Democrats in the Senate.
Dangerous products should be removed from store shelves if they’re being marketed and sold to consumers. Period. I’ve been to plenty of vape shops and shows and yet to find one though, despite looking. Let’s not confuse consumer misuse of products with those products’ inherent danger, however, as Schumer has done. In the spirit of context, here are a few facts.
  1. Toothpicks cause 9,000 injuries per year;
  2. More than 48 fast food workers are killed on the job every year;
  3. 1,700 men per year are sent to the emergency room as a result of… zipper-related injuries;
  4. 600 people die a year falling out of bed.
  5. Hundreds of thousands of people die per year from cigarette use.

Get the picture? Great. Get a life, Chuck.

VapeSling® Vape Extender – Guaranteed Connection

VapeSling® Vape Extender – Guaranteed Connection

510 to EGO adapter_vape extender

510 to EGO adapter_vape extender

This 510toEgo adapter will guarantee any 510 or Ego atty to connect when using any VapeSling.

Your VapeSling has a cradle to hold your Vape/Mod. It has a thickness of 0.8 mm (slightly less than a MM). However, this thickness creates a distance that may need compensation, as in an adjustable pin Atty or Mod. There are few atty’s and batty’s without adjustment pins in the market.

When connection fails using a VapeSling, usually, your atty is the culprit, not the mod (ie. below).

MOD 510 connector Types

ideal mod
ideal mod

On the left is an adjustable pin mod. The most Ideal mod to use with a VapeSling. Its ability to raise and lower the distance between atty and batty is superb for slinging purposes. You can use any Atty to sling with this type of mod.

On the right, is a standard Mod a floating pin. This a Sigelei 150watt. All mod types like this are very good for slinging. Most Atty will connect using a VapeSling.   

 

ATTY 510 connector Types

Adjustable Pin

  On the left is an adjustable pin Atty. The most Ideal ATTY to use with a VapeSling. Its ability to raise and lower the distance between atty and batty is perfect for slinging purposes. You can use any Mod 510 to sling with this type of Atty.

On the right is a Static pin. These Atty may need an Vape Extender/Adapter, since it’s pin is stationary remaining unadjustable for any connection issues when using a VapeSling®.

Un-Adjustable

NOTE for Atty on right–> This type of Atty is unsafe with a Hybrid mod, as it may short circuit. Get Atomizers with adjustable pins, to avoid any safety issues with your mods. A protrusion, from a inner male pin, should always present at your atty 510 connector.

protrusion

Benefits of the 510 to EGO adapter_vape extender include:

  • Extends length of 510, thus guaranteed “atty to batty’ connection when using your VapeSling.
  • extra Drip shield: further prevents e-liquid spills from dripping into the battery terminal.
  • Easily add/remove atomizers of all kinds to all battery types without Sling removal.
  • Egos and 510 attys can be switched out while your Vape/Mod stays attached to your VapeSling.

NOTE:

Yes, your Vape Extender/Adapter is Guaranteed to connect your vape when using a VapeSling.

If for any reason the adapter fails to connect, send it back for a replacement or refund.

A Beauty Ring/Thread Cover for your adapter will enhance it’s appearance with a smooth shiny surface.

Sign the Petition! —->www.atr.org/tell-trump-fire-us-surgeon-general

Fire This man
Fire This man

In a new report by the U.S. Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek H. Murthy, is calling for the inclusion of vapor in smoke-free policies and PRICE AND TAX POLICIES. We, at #notblowingsmoke, consider that a violation of the hippocratic oath he took since it will most certainly encourage youth and adults BOTH to go back to smoking instead of an alternative that has been proven to be, conservatively speaking, 95% safer than smoking. Dr. Murthy’s report ignores years of dramatic reductions in youth cigarette smoking and instead MISLEADS THE PUBLIC into believing that a much less harmful alternative presents “major health risks”. It seems obvious to us that Dr. Murthy has no objections to reversing the years of progress that have been made in curbing the use of combustible cigarettes.

As the nation’s senior public health official his term doesn’t expire until the end of 2018. With President-elect Donald Trump’s promise to “drain the swamp” however, we’re calling on Trump to deliver a simple message to Dr. Murthy: YOU’RE FIRED!

Sign the petition by ATR, which will be delivered to the president’s office, asking President Trump to FIRE the Dr. Murthy and REPLACE him with someone who actually CARES about tobacco harm reduction and saving lives. The petition link is in the profile!

Note: NOT Blowing Smoke generally does not support petitions. However, in this case as the administration is in a transitional period (and appointments and seats are still being made) there is no way to direct the messages to specific targets. The petition will be HAND DELIVERED by ATR, though, at some point in the next month. Let’s make this a message that can be heard loud and clear with the new administration.

AbillionLivesFilm – Spread the word on SM

AbillionLivesFilm – Spread the word on SM

And so it begins…

Admit it, you were curious if we could actually pull this off. You probably even thought I was a bit crazy.

“A film about vaping in theaters?”

Well, check out that map we created together!

Today another wave of theaters begins to tell this story to thousands of people. Vapers and former vapers are bringing smokers. Smokers are quitting. They are bringing their loved ones. One sold out show even had scalpers selling tickets for 300% above cost!

The truth is getting out.
Hollywood Premiere

Three ways to help make it grow

1) Purchase tickets today for yourself, your customers, or your loved ones to make sure the message gets out and hosted screenings get enough reservations. Share this new Facebook post.

Many businesses that make the tools smokers are using to quit are forbidden from telling the truth, but A Billion Lives gives them a voice. Use tickets as prizes or giveaways. Educating your community is good business.

Click here to search the map for available showtimes near you. Some of the screenings will be out of tickets today. If that happens, don’t worry (or buy from scalpers), check out #2 below.

Some screenings in smaller markets still need to hit their minimum ticket numbers by the deadline. You can see how much time is left by clicking on the event nearest you.

Please help find shops or groups interested in making each event hit the minimum so the members of the public and media that reserved a ticket are able to see the film.

This is the best chance we have to reach the public since it’s hard to invite them to your home. If the minimum is not reached, nobody is charged…and nobody sees the movie.

2) Host a screening in your city. It’s free to setup. The theater only requires about 100 tickets reserved by the deadline to make it happen. Nobody gets charged if it doesn’t happen. Risk-free.

Buy all the tickets and have a company holiday party for your shop or business. Some of the options are dinner theaters.

Tis the season to invite those who spend Thanksgiving & Christmas arguing about this topic. Not only will A Billion Lives settle the argument, but we also give 5% back to the organizers to support advocacy efforts or conduct research.

We have a facebook group to help.

Charles Ploski is doing a tremendous job volunteering to help make this successful. It’s in 20+ cities only because he offered to help in cities where someone didn’t organize a screening.

If you have a question about how to bring the movie to your city, please join our group that Mike started and ask for help.

3) Support us on social media during our current world tour and help bring awareness to the issue. Keep sharing our posts and leaving comments. The media is taking note.
Here’s a recap of what we’ve done and where we’re going:
Toronto – Oct 21

The Hot Docs theater was packed for our Canadian Premiere. The after-party was also a ton of fun. We did a bunch of Canadian press and received great news about bringing the movie to more places in Canada.

Stay tuned for more word there!
A Billion Lives on BNN in Toronto
Hollywood – Oct 26
The Hollywood Premiere and Global Launch Party was amazing. You can watch my live coverage of the red carpet and search for pictures on Getty Images (we’ll post them on Facebook soon). Big thanks to Von Erl & friends for hosting an epic party afterwards with many familiar Hollywood faces.
This came out the next day
New York City – Oct 28
Thanks to help from Jeff Stier and the organizing committee, we had an amazing evening at our sold-out New York City Premiere at the Cinepolis Chelsea. I got to hang out with media legend Joey Reynolds and former New York Yankees Cecil Fielder and Jim Leyritz.
We finished the evening with a talk back panel including myself, “Winston Man” David Goerlitz, and Dr. Sally Satel MD (AEI & Yale), which was moderated by Jared Meyer (Manhattan Institute & Forbes).
NYC Premiere Panel Discussion
New Delhi, India – Nov 9

I just got home for a few days before we head to New Delhi for our Indian Premiere at the Ojas Art Center. The World Health Organization is holding their secret Framework Convention on Tobacco Control meeting during the US elections and will bar media from attending the majority of meetings.

Why?

Word on the streets says they will vote to ban the use of safer vapor technology products in countries worldwide.

Not only did we make a new trailer about this battle, but we’re bringing “Winston Man” David Goerlitz with us (and to the events below). He was given a medal from the WHO for his role in helping fight cigarette smoking.

Wait until you see what he does with it…

If you’re going to India to help fight, I’d like to invite you to join us for free at our premiere. I have about 20 tickets reserved for my guests. Reply if you’d like to join us.

Lots of amazing advocates will be there.
Click here to watch the new trailer
Budapest, Hungary – Nov 12
After India, we are proud to have our Hungarian Premiere in one of the most beautiful theaters in the world. It will be in English, with Hungarian subtitles.

Robert Bernarius & Krisztian Pifko have been working tirelessly with the community there to plan this spectacular event. Hungary has been one of the most active international #ABillionLives communities and had almost 2500 Facebook fans within a month of starting.

We are very excited to finally meet our new friends there!
Urania National Film Theatre
Oslo, Norway – Nov 14

Lisbet (our active Norwegian coordinator) is one of the best examples of a non-industry person who quit smoking through the use of vapor technology and is now volunteering to get the truth out there.

She’s worked tirelessly, advocating not only for Norway, but also for nearby Sweden and the rest of the world.

I am very excited to see Norway and meet the other amazing people who are helping their neighbors.

If you’re in the area, come watch the movie with us. Here’s the link to buy tickets. It will be in English, with Norwegian subtitles. We’ll be hanging out afterwards, so plan on making a night of it.
Tallinn, Estonia – Nov 16

We are honored to be invited to the largest film festival in Northeastern Europe, the PÖFF Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival.

Thanks to Ingmar and the community in Estonia for helping invite influential people to our Estonian Premiere.

Buy tickets here (presented in English).
Berlin, Germany – Nov 19
This has been a long time coming. Support in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland has been amazing. The German-speaking community has been our #1 international group with the largest Facebook page and dedicated group.
Our entire European language volunteer team started more than a year ago with Anja, a volunteer in Germany. Now look at how far we’ve come!

I was struggling to find a way to make something special and Günter from Von Erl stepped up to co-sponsor the special after-party with InnoCigs. It’s going to be a very special night, and the beginning of bringing the movie to a wider German-speaking audience.We will have our German Premiere at the famous Kino International in Berlin. There will be two sessions to give more of our German friends opportunities to see the movie in German for the first time.

If you can join us, there are some tickets available still. The first event will be a formal premiere and the second will be a less-formal event. Both will end across the street at the Avenue Club.
Kino International is iconic for movie premieres

After that is Thanksgiving in the US and then it looks like I might be back to Europe again for Portugal, Sweden, Spain, Denmark, and Croatia. We’ll keep you updated.If you’ve read all of this, thanks for caring so much. I just stayed up all night writing/designing this, so hopefully it all makes sense.

Talk soon,
– Aaron Biebert

— Hands for a Billion Lives —

“Nationwide Community of ‘Vapers’ Joins Hands to Save Lives”

480,000 people in the US die every year from smoking related illnesses and a

billion people are projected to die this century worldwide.

Smoking is one of the most difficult addictions to overcome and each year kills tens of thousands of people and runs up billions in added medical expenses. One of the most successful methods to help smokers quit has been electronic cigarettes and vaping devices.

This industry has been misunderstood and recently the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) has deemed that vaping devices, which contain no tobacco, and many times, no nicotine, are considered tobacco products, even with the recent study from the Royal College of l Physicians that estimated electronic cigarettes are at least 95% less harmful than tobacco products.

Due to federal and state regulations, many vape shops and related businesses will close and put an estimated 37,000 to 57,000 employees out of work. Not having access to the products that helped them quit will also force many back to smoking tobacco cigarettes.

A new movie called “A Billion Lives” outlines the history and the conspiracy behind large business concerns’ efforts to kill off the vaping industry. This movie is now premiering throughout the United States and the vaping community is standing up for the right to know the truth.

On Saturday, October 22, vaping supporters and the public at large will collect and hold hands for 10 minutes throughout the nation. At 2:22 p.m. in each time zone, vapers will meet at various locations to support this movie. This wall is a visual demonstration of support to save A Billion Lives.

We ask your support of the public’s right to have accurate information and a way to choose healthier alternatives. For more information, visit HandsForABillionLives.com or call 214-608-8031 or e-mail [email protected]

A BILLION LIVES
New York City
Premiere & Panel

Friday, 10/28
8:10 pm
Cinépolis Chelsea


Award-winning “A Billion Lives” is kicking off its worldwide theatrical release on Friday, October 28, 2016, with a one-week limited engagement playing in New York City at the Cinépolis Chelsea until November 4th.  

To kick off this special engagement, members of the media and concerned thought leaders are invited to join award-winning Director Aaron Biebert for an exclusive screening and panel discussion with  “Winston Man” and Dr. Sally Satel about saving a billion lives. National Center for Public Policy Research’s Jeff Stier will Chair New York City and host the panel immediately following the viewing.
Our fight is heating up. With the election around the corner, we need vapers to contact their Congressmen and Senators to urge them to support our cause before the FDA regulates the vaping business out of existence.  Vapers need to educate themselves about how their local, state and federal legislators stand on the issue of vaping. Please ask your federal representatives to support HR2058 and the Cole-Bishop amendment which would move the predicate date and allow products on the market now to remain on the market.

It’s easy – visit www.august8th.org. And ask your friends and family to do the same!

We hope to see you in the city later this month!

Sincerely,

National Vapers Club
